He lost himself in that kiss. Their tongues tangled, and Leo’s knees went weak. The vampire kissed like he wanted to taste Leo’s soul, and Leo wanted to let him. He wanted to hand himself over on a silver platter and allow Junjie to feast on him.
But Junjie was still cold and while the vampire’s health wasn’t in any danger, that didn’t mean he wasn’t uncomfortable.
With great reluctance, Leo tore his mouth from Junjie’s, shifting to nuzzle his neck. “Shower. You need to get in the shower,” he said between playful nibbles.
He could have sworn he heard an irritated huff from Junjie, but the vampire didn’t argue as he stepped into the glass-enclosed stall that was big enough to fit them comfortably. The only thing missing was a bench for sexy shenanigans, but there were plenty of things they could do without a bench.
Leo entered the shower behind Junjie and closed the door to help seal in the warm air. His breath stopped in his lungs as his eyes locked on Junjie. Water cascaded down his naked body, forming streams and rivers as it flowed between ripples of muscles. His skin was a creamy white that he ached to lick up. And the paleness of his skin made the delectable trail of hair running from his navel to his thickening cock more eye-catching.
“Cat?”
Junjie’s voice jerked his eyes up to his face. Except Junjie wasn’t looking at him. The vampire had his head tipped back in the spray with both hands threading through all those dark, silky locks. Junjie was the epitome of wet dreams. He would never meet anyone as sexy or stunningly gorgeous as Junjie at that moment.
“Stop staring and get over here,” Junjie commanded as he wiped the water from his eyes.
“Gotta say I love how bossy you become when you have no pants on.”
Junjie snorted and reached for the soap, but Leo beat him to it. He snatched up the shampoo and held it behind him.
“Let me do the work. You tell me what happened tonight.”
The vampire said nothing for several seconds while Leo focused on pouring the shampoo into the palm of his hand and closing the cap. In fact, Junjie didn’t speak until Leo turned him to face the spray and began massaging the soap through his hair.
“We saw Trin tonight.”
“I’m gonna take a wild guess and say he’s not dead yet.”
“No.”
He told a crazy tale of fighting elves, a violent thunderstorm followed by more elves, being rescued by a good elf, a flock of fairies, and some gnomes. They’d gone inside a tree to meet an underground fae resistance force.
By the time Junjie was done, Leo was rinsing the conditioner from his hair.
“My heart hurts for Rei,” Junjie murmured, placing his hand on his chest. “I know he worries about his people, regardless of his words and nonchalant attitude. But I believe he also wants to remain here with Yichen. He’s created a boundary that others keep hammering against. It will weaken soon if we don’t resolve this problem, and Rei might cave to their demands.”
“He’ll return to the fae realm out of duty, and Yichen will follow him,” Leo continued.
“They’ll be miserable there. I know it. I don’t need my gift to see it.”
Leo picked up a cake of rich-smelling soap that was silky to the touch. He had a sneaking suspicion someone in the Zhang clan had made it. This was far too fine to be found in any grocery or bath store. He got his hands soapy and put the cake aside. He ran slick fingers over Junjie’s chest, across tense shoulders, and down over flat abs.
“Then we’ll have to kill Jiang Chong and that elf Trin before anyone can brainwash Rei into making such a terrible decision.”
Junjie opened his mouth, but Leo was afraid he was going to argue, so Leo slid his soapy hands south and grasped Junjie’s semi-erect cock. The vampire’s words morphed into a long moan of pleasure. Bastet, I could listen to that sound all fucking night.
“Leo,” Junjie choked out. Strong hands grabbed his ass cheeks and dug in, massaging muscles and starting an ache deep inside him. A horny voice in Leo’s head begged for him to just stick his ass in the air and demand Junjie rail him straight into oblivion with his enormous cock.
But this evening’s panic attack proved the vampire wasn’t some quick fuck and be gone by dawn. No, Junjie was special. They were going slow, even if it killed him. It was the only way to give them time to figure this out.
Plus, he might want to savor all the ways he could take Junjie apart.
“What’s wrong, Jun-Jun? Want me to help you forget for a bit?”
Junjie shook his head. “I want us to come so hard we forget our own names.”
